Hello all, My name is Mandy and I live in Australia. I currently have 5 days to go till my Lap Band Surgery and I am super excited!!!! I was lucky enough to hear about this website from Skymoon1982 in one of her Youtube vlogs, I have been watching all the episodes like a maniac. As they say Knowledge is Power!!! I can't wait to be through the surgery and be on the "other side"!!! I am suppose to be on my two week pre-op liquid diet however I must admit I am failing miserably. I will try try try to be good for the next 5 days I promise!!!! Anywho just wanted to introduce myself. I look forward to getting to know you all. Have a super day!!! Mandy AKA McBandy76 (also found on Youtube under the same user name)  |
